Keynote Panel: Power innovation - How is the industry adapting to the density challenge?
According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), data centres are responsible for about 1.5%, or 415 Terawatt-Hours (TWh), of the world's total yearly electricity consumption. This has grown by 12% per year over the last 5 years and projections indicate that it is on course to more than double towards 945 TWh by 2030.
